VOTE THE BONDS,

At the head of the local page will
be found a notice of the election to be
held here on the 9th of April to ascer-
tain whether or not the people OF
Johnson City are willing to subscribe
$4,000 to the Charleston Cincinnati &
Chicago Railroad. We do not deem
1t necessary to urge upon the people
the necessity of voting for the bonds,
taking it for granted that the people
known their own interest. 1t is pro-
posed that the corporation of Johnson
City issue bonds to the amount of $780,.
600 and become common stockhold-
er in the G. G. 4 G. railroad to that
amount, and shall receive dividends
as other stockholders. The G. G. & c.
company have made lis direct propo-
sition, to the effect that If we will take
stock in the road to the amount men
toned they will build it through
Johnson City, and will not ask for 4
dollar until the road is completed
We cannot possibly lose anything by
voting for the bonds, but on the con
trary, have every thing to gain. W.
take it that our people are too sen
sible not to take advantage of this op
portunity to benefit themselves,

WASHINGTON, March 2S,-Daniel A,
Carpenter, who was on Saturday APP
pointed pension agent at Knoxville,
was backed for the place by the inte
rior and exGov. Porter when Wagner
was appointed, The president APP
pointed Wagner only because he was
more in need Of the place pecuniarily
than Carpenter but circumstances
have lately come to light that forbade
his reappointment, In this appoint
ment the president has followed his
rule OF putting union soldiers in these
places where it is possible. Mr. Pat.
terson was a union man, but not a
soldier, He was too young during
the war, Gov, Porter at first favored
the appointment of Wagner, but late
ly has been pushing Carpenter.
Carpenter served in the union army
during the war and was for some
time an inmate Of Libby prison. Hi
ability is unquestioned.

That Alledged Kicking
Especial to Memphis Appeal)


CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, March 28---
The telegram in to-day's american re-
lative to the dissatisfaction in this city
over Gov. Taylor's failure to reap
point Col. Tom Cain as Superintendent
Of State Prison is not a true reflect OF
public sentiment here. Machine
Democrats are kicking, but they are
small in number, and always howl
when the Governor fails to comply
with their wishes The liberal Demo
Gratis applaud Gov, Taylor's action,
and say he doubtless had good reasons
for not appointing Col. Cain.
The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1887-03-31

say huzza for Taylor. You know
that we are democrats up here and
never follow off after dictations of
Others. If Gov Taylor goes on as he
has commenced no man in Tennessee
could beat him for the second term.
The people are with him and for him
and more solidly united than we ever
saw them. We like the Union and its
course in sustaining the governor.
PROGRESS.
The comet. (Johnson City, Tenn.) 1884-1916, 1887-03-31

The Knoxville Tribune in its blind
and rabid attacks on Governor Taylor
seemingly Forgets it's obligation as a
public journal to tell the truth and it's
duty as a citizen to speak of Chief Ex-
ecutive Of the State in respectful and
decent way, This paper announced
in It's headlines a few days ago that
Gov. Taylor had gone back on Capt.
T. G. Cain after positively promising
to re-appoint him Superintendent Of
Prisons. We dislike to seem discour-
teous to other newspapers but there is
but one way to characterize this state
ment and that is to call it by it's right
name-a lie.
Gov. Taylor, for reasons satisfactory
to himself, chose to appoint some one
other than Mr.. Cain, and when that
was done the Tribune, with utter dis
regard for dency, declares that the
Governor, if he had a spark of graf
itude in his soul would not turn his
back upon man TO whom he is in
debted for his present position" Gov
Taylor had the right to appoint whom
he pleased. He did not owe his ap
pointment to any one man. There
were perhaps a dozen applicants, al
of whom were his warm friends anC
ardent supporters and to say that HI
did not have spark Of gratitude in hi
soul because he did not select partic
ular one of these men, is simply mean
pusillanimous and contemplate. Sucl
attacks do not harm Governor Taylo
but they show the straits to which hi
enemies in their desperation are driv
en-,
